E. Writer I saw only part of the heading, "How to make a book" at first. Interestingly, I can make hardcover books at home. I have one of those bookmaking kits. I first saw one in Meghan Markle's Netflix Christmas show. For the video content, I typically disregard those videos and sites offering tips on how to have a bestseller because they are usually fake or involve manipulating Amazon's algorithms, or manipulating something. The best way to have a bestseller is knowing when to market and how to write a great book.

Roy Scarbrough I like repairing old books. I have a kit for that. Some glue. Some needles. Some special thread. Old books are sewn in signatures. That's several two page leafs to be sewn together at the fold. That's a signatures. The signatures are then bound with more thread across the spine.

E. Writer Yes, the kit I have comes with sewing materials. It's a cool set.

E. Writer I saw a clip of this on CNN yesterday. She was stunned by the response.

E. Writer This is true. You will get a completely different answer to the same exact question, depending on the way you ask. I pose the same question every day and I change the question each time, and they give me different answers each time.

E. Writer Watching this now. The gatekeepers rebounded. They just keep self-published authors out in other ways. There are specific rules that say, if your books are distributed by Amazon KDP then it is ineligible for specific events that authors may need to participate in. I've seen it. So a book released on Amazon is not taken seriously and the gatekeepers have rules to keep those books out. Especially with the added AI slop and books that are not written by human authors has made KDP a less serious platform. That said, this person is using a new marketing strategy for a book printing company, which is to advertise through an informative video , where they appear to be sharing information but they're really advertising a company. In this case, Tibees.

E. Writer When I worked for Sony I remember they had Aibo, an AI robot puppy back in 2006 when I started working for the corporate office, so I'm not surprised they are able to create something like this. I actually wanted an Aibo but it was thousands of dollars 20 years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLjtOMBWvTo

E. Writer Solid video. I did a few events on this subject. This is fairly accurate. I will think about it more when I am done watching.
